The aim of this binding spell is to exorcise weakness in denying bad habits, influences, and interactions in your life. This spell provides a framework that the witch/practitioner can manipulate to suit them: quitting self harm, containing self-destructive libidos, stopping yourself from communicating with a toxic person, etc. Ultimately, this sachet/mojo bag is for dealing with psychological addiction.Ā
This spell should be done on a Saturday night. The day derives itās name from the planet Saturn; the planet associated with controlling, cursing, binding, separation, hedonism, money, and death. A Saturday on a New Moon would be the perfect circumstance, for nights of the New Moon are the nights we stop to look inside ourselves; a time when we are our most vulnerable and when rebirth of the soul is the most possible.Ā
Find your way to a dark room, at a late hour, when/where you will not been seen or disturbed by others. This spell is intensely personal, and privacy is key to itās success. Turn off all light sources in the room, and sit in the centre of the room, facing south (south is the direction of the element of Fire - the element that represents courage, power, and transformation), and light a single black candle.Ā
Listen to the quiet of the room around you. Even if there is the sound of traffic on the streets outside, or the humming of insects outside your door, there is always an immediate silence, an immediate silence that is always surrounding you. Listen to that silence. Watch the flame of the candle in front of you, allow yourself to fall into itās trance and submit to your unconscious for the last time: Breathe in once. Inhale all of your insecurities, your fears, your weakness - and breath out. Release the anxieties of weakness - breathe out - these weaknesses are going to be bound, and you now have power over them.
Take one stone or crystal out of these three:
Garnet - (Mars, fire, projective) Enhances bodily strength and Ā endurance. The garnet deals in the power dynamics of sexual energies and psychological fantasy. An oath sworn over garnet can never be broken.Ā
Jet - (Saturn, earth, receptive) Exorcism of both human and non-human entities. Known as the āmourning stoneā Ā in Victorian and Edwardian eras, and continues with its association to death. Wards the Evil Eye. Continuously worn, it is thought to absorb a part of the wearerās soul (thus, this stone must be carefully guarded, for falling into the wrong hands could lead to manipulation of the original wearer). Has the folkname of āWitchās Amberā.Ā
Onyx - (Mars+Saturn, fire, projective) Ā In the past, onyx was seen as the manifestation of a demon imprisoned in stone. The demon wakes at night, and spreads terror and nightmares to any person within its range of influence. Now, onyx is more seen as a protective stone when facing enemies. Onyx can reduce sexual impulses, when taught to. Keep in mind: it will reduce these impulses, but it can never fully contain them.Ā
Black Tourmaline - (Saturn, earth, receptive) Tourmaline, when black, absorbs the negative energies and, in a way, shields the practitioner because of it.
With black ribbon or string, tie a token of yourself or your weakness to the stone. A part of yourself could be: a cutting of hair, a drop of blood, a vial of eyelashes, or tears collected from a broken heart. A token of your weakness could be: a ticket stub to a casino, a cutting of an ex loverās hair, a square of fabric cut form someoneās clothes, or a razor used for self-harm. Wrap a stone that corresponds to the nature of your addiction and token - wrap it several times, in several directions, and tightly. Bind the token and stone. Knot the ribbon/string several times, when finished.Ā
Drop the bound stone/token into a fabric bag that is black and opaque (you cannot see through the fabric to whatās inside). The bag must have a drawstring, or another way of closing, or it will have to be sewn shut (with black or white thread). Before sealing the bag with the stone/token inside, add one of the following herbs to the bag/sachet:
A Dried CarnationĀ - (masculine, Sun, fire) Carnations are associated with healing, strength, and protection. Including one of these flowers in your bag/sachet will protect you through giving you the strength to heal. A darker blossom is best, for this spell.Ā
Belladonna - (feminine, Saturn, water) This flower, also known as āDeadly Nightshade" Ā is extremely powerful - and extremely poisonous. Incredible caution must be used when dealing with it. Belladonna has a dark, and mysterious history associated with Hecate, wrath, femininity, death, and revenge against those sickened with lust.Ā
A Clove of GarlicĀ - (masculine, Mars, fire) Used to guard against disease and absorb sickness (of the body andĀ mind). Extremely protective. Also used to guard against intrusions of evil, and thieves.
A Thistle HeadĀ - (masculine, Mars, fire) The sharp bloom of this flower wards off thieves. It fiercely, and loyally, protects its practitioner (and only its practitioner) against evil, great and small.
These herbs will further bind the stone and token, will protect the bag, and the practitioner themselves.
Now is the time to load the bag/sachet with your intentions. As you close the bag, imagine finally closing your insecurities, weaknesses, and addictions inside as well. Seal the bag as tightly as you can, physically. Seal the bag further, and magically, by passing it over the heat of the flame from the black candle in front of you. Envision the heat of the flame singeing the bag shut (and you weaknesses within it).Ā
Understand that this bag has a part of you now, that it has been charged with a small amount of your life force, your soul. Recognize the frailty of its contents, and the power of itās contents, should they be released again. This bag is now sacred.Ā
Ending the Ritual - Hiding the Bag
End the ritual by listening to the immediate silence again, understand now that the silence has changed: it is vibrating with your intention. Garner all of that free flowing energy and direct it towards the candle in front of you, and with one breath, blow out the candle, extinguish the flame, and with it extinguish the free flowing energies of the room that would otherwise leave you vulnerable and open to outside energies. Once the flame is extinguished, the room will darken entirely. Allow the darkness to wash over you, the room, and the small bag held in your hands. The only energy left from the ritual will be contained in that single bag.Ā
The next step is essential. Do not destroy the bag. Do not throw the bag away. This is not an exorcism spell but a binding spell. Whoever possesses that bag, holds power over the energies contained within it. This is a spell of empowerment: as long as you possess this bag, you have power over the weaknesses within it. Never, ever let anyone know of the existence of this bag, even the ones you trust. This bag is powerful - and in the wrong hands can hurt you greatly. Hide this bag. Hide it somewhere only you know, somewhere no one would ever search for or happen on it - but also somewhere that you can have access to if/when you need it. (For exmaple: bury the bag next to a marked tree in a nearby or distant forest, hide it underneath the floorboards in a room no one often frequents, hollow out a dull book and place the bag inside, tape the bag underneath a cabinet or counter that no one would ever reason to look under, etc.)
Remember this bag ā¦ It will remember you.Ā
